Case Study: a $11 Billion Global Macro Hedge Fund builds its US operations team with Goodman Masson

a $11 billion global macro hedge fund places 5 hires with Goodman Masson

Goodman Masson partnered with an $11 billion global macro hedge fund to support its US launch. The challenge was to build an entire middle and back office team from scratch, requiring niche expertise in complex macro trading environments. The client faced a thin talent pool, an overwhelming volume of applicants, and needed a single, exclusive partner to cohesively hire a four-person team.

Goodman Masson executed a proactive search, leveraging its deep network to engage high-caliber, passive candidates. The vendor's consultants thoroughly qualified each prospect, ensuring perfect alignment with the fund's strategies. This solution resulted in the successful placement of five candidates, 100% fulfilling the exclusive mandate. The new team achieved immediate operational stability, allowing the trading desk to scale seamlessly with zero onboarding lag.
